Winterlights at the Purcell-Cutts House 2019 – Minneapolis, MN

Dec 20, 2019 | art/design

Designed by William Purcell and George Elmslie in 1913, the Prairie School–style Purcell-Cutts House will be decorated for the holidays to reflect the upper-middle-class “progressive” lifestyle of the Purcells around 1915. Forty-five-minute tours led by costumed docents will emphasize the gifts, toys, food, and social traditions of the period that the Purcells might have enjoyed. For example, many people had begun to reject Victorian knickknacks in favor of useful gifts that reflected modern aesthetic values of simplicity and function. Decorations include a Christmas tree adorned mainly with handmade paper ornaments, some in the Japanese style.

 

Winterlights tours of the Purcell-Cutts House are given on weekends through January 5, 2020. Reserve: Online ticketing for Winterlights Purcell-Cutts tours

For Winterlights tours, shuttle service is provided between Mia and the Purcell-Cutts House. The shuttle leaves Mia 15 minutes before scheduled tour times at the house.
